While the prime free agents for the Knicks' summer shopping are almost all still padding their resumes, Knicks coach David Fizdale took to ESPN to begin the franchise's pitch.
Fizdale was a guest on "The Jump" on Monday afternoon and insisted, despite the 17-65 record in his first year as coach of the team that has struggled for the better part of two decades, the Knicks have something to draw the top players to join in.
"(We're having) a lot of conversations, a lot of angles that we're trying to make sure that we show guys when they come in," Fizdale said. "I think we've got a lot of positive things to show. (GM) Scott Perry and (president) Steve Mills have done a heck of a job laying this thing out. We've got the most cap space. We have seven picks over five years, which means whoever we do get, we can continue to build around them, and I think that's a great position to be in. We did all that in a course of a year and we laid down our culture, so I'm really excited about where we're at."
